Install
Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.
npx skills add https://github.com/podo/design-agent-skills --skill impeccable- 01
Install
Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.
- 02
Describe the task
Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads impeccable automatically when relevant.
- 03
Review the result
The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.
SKILL.md
The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.

Heads-up
- Requires: the skill's launcher (scripts/impeccable) downloads a native engine binary to ~/.impeccable/bin on first run; anonymous usage telemetry is on by default (opt out with IMPECCABLE_NO_TELEMETRY=1 or DO_NOT_TRACK=1)
- License: Apache-2.0
- Large download (~737 MB): the skills CLI gives up cloning after 300 s; if it times out, retry with
SKILLS_CLONE_TIMEOUT_MS=900000.
Invoke after install
- Skill name:
impeccable - Run
/impeccable <command> <target>, and/impeccable initonce per project to capture PRODUCT.md - Restart your agent session after installing so the skill and commands load
npx skills add installs the skill only. Upstream's own installer (npx impeccable install) also registers edit hooks that run the design detector after UI file edits; review those hooks before using it.
What it does
A single skill whose commands are invoked as /impeccable <command>:
| Command | Purpose |
|---|---|
shape | Plan UX/UI before writing code |
init / document | Capture product context (PRODUCT.md) and generate DESIGN.md from existing code |
critique | UX design review with heuristic scoring |
audit | Technical quality checks (accessibility, performance, responsive) |
polish | Final quality pass before shipping |
bolder / quieter / distill | Amplify, calm down, or simplify a design |
animate / colorize / typeset / layout / delight | Targeted enhancement passes |
harden / onboard / clarify / adapt / optimize | Edge cases, first-run flows, UX copy, responsiveness, performance |
live / generate | Pick elements in the browser and iterate on variants |
| + more | See the upstream README and the skill's command table |
It also ships a detector for design anti-patterns that can run from the command line. Commands read PRODUCT.md for durable product context; missing it, the skill runs init for a new surface rather than guessing.
When NOT to use
- Backend, API, or data-pipeline work
- Non-UI tasks (routing, auth, database)
- Deep color-science work such as OKLCH palette generation (use
color-expert)
